Molly Rebecca has arrived!

Sarah gave birth to Molly Rebecca on February 28th 2008 at 12:40PM. She was 4 days overdue, and the baby was delivered by C-section. Molly weighed in at 9 pounds 8 ounces, and is 20.5 inches tall.

Here's are some picutres of the events leading up to Molly's birth:


Here's us right before Sarah went in to the Operating Room to have the C-section done. For whatever reason, they decided to not to use an IV Bag holder to get Sarah from our hospital room to the OR, so they utilized Nathan as a walking holder.



Nathan had to wait outside the OR while the doctors prepared Sarah for surgery. He was waiting there for probably 15 minutes.



About 40 minutes after Sarah entered the OR, we had a baby. Here she is!





Here's Molly on the warming pad in our Hospital room.




Here's Molly laying on mom. It's one of Molly's favorite positions.



And here's Sarah, Nathan, and Molly all together. We love Molly a lot!

If we could figure out a way to bottle and share the feeling of a warm, sleepy baby lying on your chest I think we could achieve world peace. Isn't it the best? (Such a good "sleep aid" too... course that may just be the lack of sleep at other times.) Enjoy every second. Love, Gram
